How are my fellow MD'ers? I've been busy working the glamorous world of retail and trying to find a f/t job. Not going well at this point... It's not a good time to be a liberal arts graduate, heh. Oh well. :)

Hello everyone! I signed up to Athiest nexus just to join this group, even living in the triangle (between D.C., Baltimore and Annapolis) I've been having a hard time finding fellow athiests and freethinkers. I am in hopes that this will quell that.

Cookout and Beach Party at Rocky Point State Park on Sat., June 13 from 11am to 7pm. Bring the kids. Bring your own food. A grill will be available. Alcohol prohibited. Lifeguard on Duty. All atheist groups in Md., DC and Va. have been invited.

Hi Sharon! Welcome to the group. I'm across the Bay near Annapolis. I agree with Philippe -- it's nice to know that there are others around with similar POV's. Don't know of any others near here. Maybe some other area lurkers will show up & we can have a meet-up of our own!

Sharon, welcome to the group. I'm new myself. I used to live in France where there are a lot of atheists, and it's kind of reassuring to know that there are others like me not too far. Also, this is for everybody, there is an atheist meeting in Silver Spring through a Meet Up group.

I tried to assist in getting a cookout in the Hagerstown area, but there seems to be a conflict between a Hagerstown site and Martinsburg site. Not being from the area, I don't want to be the one to sway the votes one way or the other. I guess that we will have to just understand the atheists in that area are not that interested in having an atheist cookout so I will focus on Rocky Point and also the Eastern Shore and leave Western Md. alone until they can do more than just talk about it.
